The booted contestant was Nicole Snooki Polizzi. The former “Jersey Shore” star received the bad news at the end of Monday night’s episode, which ended with Amber Riley at the top of the leaderboard. Comedian Bill Engvall was in the bottom two alongside Snooki, but he survives to dance another week.

Snooki was tearful, but still managed to show her sense of humor.

Dressed in ghoulish makeup for her team dance just moments earlier, the pint-sized star joked “Why am I leaving a zombie?”

On the bright side, her adorable son Lorenzo was reportedly waiting for his mom backstage.
